DU and the bottle aren't enough anymore!

[WMliberal]

I needs me a woman. Or maybe another cat. Should I make this into a poll?

[kedrys]

1. How many cats do you already have? n/t

[99Pancakes]

2. I have a spouse, 2 cats

and a bottle of whiskey. All is well in Shrubby's Hell.

[Skink]

4. Amen Brother...

:beer:

[WMliberal]

3. 3

James, George, and Elsie. James is a bitch-cat of a tabby. George is a skitterish grey. Elsie is a FAT tuxedo.

[SaintAnne]

5. three kitties

fat cats are the best! so loveable and cuddly!

[WMliberal]

8. aye, but she's grown sullen in her later years

She growls at the other kitties whenever they walk by. She gets beat up daily. I don't know how she can be nothing but a fat love ball to the humans, but an ornery bitch to the other sweet kitties.

[SaintAnne]

10. she wants all the attention of course!

kitties are very jealeous creatures. I have an old old old cat, who hates it when we smother the other cats with attention. he's cranky, not so much now, his mind is going going going, almost completely gone, he forgets where he is most of the time

[kedrys]

11. We have five kitties

After that, a single-malt whisky pretty much takes care of everything else. :D

[WMliberal]

18. i love the single malt

but I make $6.50 an hour. I can barely afford blended scotch...

[kedrys]

23. My dream is to someday be able to afford a single malt that's older than I

am. More difficult to swing with each passing year :D

[WMliberal]

25. i know the feeling...

earning 6.50 after graduating from a GOOD college... makes me wonder if I'll ever get a Johnny Blue before I'M 60.

[kedrys]

26. Unemployed for more than two years...

...doing okay freelancing, but damn. Spousal unit's support cannot be sufficiently praised.

[kedrys]

14. What is it about the gray gene and the skittish gene...

...being linked together? Our Socrates is grey and white, and very skittish, and one of the outdoor cats (Odin) is grey and white with some serious speeding problems.

[SaintAnne]

15. orange cat

our orange and white cat is skittish, the gray/white one as mellow and sweet as pumpkin pie. of course it's not just the color, it's the kind of cat that you got

[kedrys]

19. Sometimes Socrates freaks out...

...he's been violently allergic to the doorbell ever since the triplet's first birthday party - he dug himself under the covers and stayed there all night - and will fly down the stairs at warp 12 to hide in my office when the bell rings. Two and a half years later, no less.

However, he also sleeps flat on his back, going against a bazillion years of evolution to hone his situational awareness :) It's kinda cool to have a cat feel that safe in your house.

[SaintAnne]

21. sounds like a monster cat

that's what Aussie (pronounced ozzy) is, a monster cat, big ears, big feet and big tail, and freaks out at people coming in, or new bed things or a person opening a drawer too loud. and yes he too sleeps on his back sometimes, the cute little guber

[kedrys]

22. Socrates weighs 18 lbs and change...

...and his doctor swears he's not fat. He's two feet long (without the tail), and he used to be the size of his head. We rescued him and his brother and sister when they were about 5-6 weeks old, and they've been with us ever since.

[WMliberal]

24. 18? hah. elsie mocks your kitty.

elsie is 20 and a half pounds. she is a bowling ball with legs. and she's a sweetie to me!

[kedrys]

27. COOL!!

Great big cats are so cool. Socrates' brother weighs almost 18 lbs, and their sister rings in at about 9. Their cousin weighs about 12, and the oldest tips the scales at just short of 15.

[bettyellen]

6. maybe a puppy? or a drink, wanna nice shot of powers?

couple of cubes, dribble of water?
Liquid butterscotch! Well, I convinced myself!

[Abelman]

7. Woman.

[flamingyouth]

9. Xanax

[WMliberal]

16. best suggestion yet

a new drug!!!!!! how does it combine with alcohol? From how the first lady deals with it, I'd guess it works great.

[Endangered Specie]

12. Woman? Cat? arent those technically a pursuit of the same thing?

:evilgrin:

[kedrys]

13. It's a lot easier to herd cats... n/t

[WMliberal]

17. oh yeah, have you ever been to a sorority house

when the OC is on?!

[kedrys]

20. LOL!!!

Nope, can't say that I have... :D
